If you liked what we had to say about the BILLIONAIRES a couple of weeks back in “Cellars” and you’ve already worked your way through the band’s debut, then we have some good news for you: the album recorded in 2005 by UNBUSTED — the Martha’s Vineyard core of the Billionaires — has indeed seen the light of day. We got confirmation this week from Mark Kates of Fenway Recordings that, though he hasn’t released You Are Young as a proper CD, the Paul Kolderie–produced 14-track disc is available digitally from iTunes. There’s also a “new” Unbusted four-song EP for sale at the band’s MySpace site. . . . Those of you who are counting down the days till the May 20 release of No, Virginia . . . (Roadrunner) — the DRESDEN DOLLS’ 11-track collection of outtakes and rarities, with their version of the Psychedelic Furs’ “Pretty in Pink” as well as five new songs — may want to consider pre-ordering the disc. If you go to the Dolls’ Web site (www.dresdendolls.com), you can enter a contest to win that little toy piano Amanda Palmer plays in the “Coin-Operated Boy” video, as well as tickets to any of the Dolls’ headlining shows on their upcoming tour. None of those shows is in Boston, and you’ve gotta pay your own way. But Palmer will be back in Boston for a home-town show with the Boston Pops on June 19 at Symphony Hall. It’s part of the Pops “EdgeFest,” and tickets are bound to go fast.

Boston muisc news: April 13, 2007 The working title for Amanda Palmer's solo album is Who Killed Amanda Palmer? , but the Dresden Doll says she’s toying with another: That’s Amanda Fucking Palmer to You .

Sex, clubs and rock ’n’ roll The first thing you’d have noticed about the Dresden Dolls’ CD-release show at the Orpheum April 21 was how different it felt to be seated in a theater while the duo played.

Growing pains So much has happened for the Dresden Dolls over the past year that it’s no surprise the duo fared so well in this year’s Best Music Poll.

The Dresden Dolls No, Virginia ranks with Elvis Costello’s Taking Liberties as a B-sides/leftovers album that turns out to be more fun and more revealing than a thought-out official release.

AFTER IMAGES | May 28, 2010 Karen Finley won’t be naked, or covered in chocolate. Candied yams will not be involved. If there are neighborhood morality-watch squads in Salem, they’ll have the night off.

INTERVIEW: SARAH SILVERMAN | April 23, 2010 Recently, “Sarah” — the character played by Sarah Silverman on Comedy Central’s The Sarah Silverman Program — was upset because in today’s world it just wasn’t safe anymore for children to get into strangers’ vans.

TATTOO YOU | April 06, 2010 Dr. Lakra is no more a real doctor than is Dr. Dre or Dr. Demento. The 38-year-old Mexican tattoo artist’s real name is Jerónimo López Ramírez. As for “lakra,” it means “delinquent.” Or so I thought.

INTERVIEW: DAMON WAYANS | February 16, 2010 "Right now, my intent is not to offend. I just want to laugh. I want to suspend reality."
